jnikoley Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Has anyone had any experience with "accu risers" from ernie the gunsmith? Im going to do my first bedding job, and in my research, came accross them. The concept seems sound, any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I have spent a fair amount of time in a long range shooting forum and I've never heard them mentioned. You can draw your own conclusion. What kind of rifle and stock? Generally speaking, for a long range rifle, you want a good stock with a bedding block built in and a forend that won't flex. With that, you don't need to bed the stock.

This is good advice. Bedding can perform well though, and if you're gonna do it here's an article on the subject. http://www.6mmbr.com/pillarbedding.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 You never said what rifle, but I'm going to assume that it's a wood stock. If that's the case then you should have a look into pillar bedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnikoley Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Rifle is a Rem 700P with HS precision Pro 2000 stock. My intent is to bed the action to relieve stress on the reciever when properly torqued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got an aluminum bedding block with pillars that runs the length of the action and into the forend. It shouldn't need to be epoxy bedded.

Biloxi23 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Take a look at teh XLR Evoloution stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxshooter Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 All of my precision rifles have aluminum bedding blocks that run into the forend of the stock. None are bedded, just torque the action bolts to spec and shoot. The problem with any bedding material that can absorb moisture is it can cause a shift in POI.
